Chapter 143: Nightmare In the Middle of the Night
Shen Nan had learned to be smart. At this moment, he did not dare to speak because he knew clearly that he was making a lot of mistakes. Perhaps his mother still had some bad moves waiting for him. It was better for him to be tactful and shut up.
Third Aunt had originally planned to exchange a few children to go back and rest. Since she had nothing to do the next day, she would be the one to guard Emily. However, the children had been playing crazily for a very long time and were unwilling to leave.
In desperation, she could only play with them for a while longer. Seeing that Shen Xu and Shen Hao were playing crazily with the three children, she did not say anything. After all, it had been a very long time since she had seen the children playing together so happily.
Third Aunt looked at the watch on her wrist. Seeing that it was already very late, she hurriedly urged the children to go back and rest. However, no matter what, Shen Yu would not leave. Emily could not bear to let Shen Yu leave.
“Brother, don’t go. I’m afraid of having nightmares. I don’t want the big tiger to eat me.” As Emily spoke, she began to cry. Her bandaged hand grabbed onto Shen Yu’s arm, unwilling to let Shen Yu leave.
Third Aunt was instantly put in a difficult position. She felt that if she let Shen Yu leave now, she would become the bad guy. As for the other four children, when they saw that Emily did not want anyone but Shen Yu t to stay behind, they were instantly heartbroken.
However, Emily had no intention of keeping them. They could not be thick-skinned enough to say that they wanted to stay.
“Millie, Third Aunt is here with you. Third Aunt will definitely not let the big tiger eat you.” When Third Aunt heard Emily’s words, her heart ached terribly. This child was too sensible. She had been laughing very happily the entire day, but actually, she was scared to death.
“No, I just want my brother.” Emily could not listen to Third Aunt anymore. She cried even more sadly.
“Third Aunt, why don’t I stay here with Emi? I’m afraid that she will have nightmares at night.” Shen Yu felt even more heartache when he saw Emily like this. He looked at Third Aunt pleadingly.
Third Aunt was stunned when she saw the message in Shen Yu’s eyes. It had been a long time since Shen Yu had asked her for anything.
“Alright, Millie, don’t cry anymore. Let Xiao Yu stay with you tonight, okay? Third Aunt will go and get the nurse to add another bed for you, okay?”
Emily sniffled and nodded. “Thank… Thank you, Third Aunt.”
Shen Nan was also a little tempted to stay, but his mother glared at him. Shen Nan instantly became obedient.
Shen Xu and Shen Hao also did not want to leave. It had been a long time since they had such a relaxing time. It was too tiring to either study or take exams every day.
But it was better to forget about it. Emily was staying in the hospital. It was noisy, and she could not have a good rest. It was better to leave and come back the next day.
“No, no, don’t eat me. I don’t taste good.” Just as Shen Yu had expected, Emily had a nightmare again in the middle of the night. Emily kept waving her hands, and tears kept falling from the corners of her eyes. Third Aunt and Shen Yu looked at each other.
“Daddy, Daddy, come and save me. The tiger is going to eat me.” Emily waved her hands even more fiercely.
Emily’s dream talk woke up Third Aunt and Shen Yu. Shen Yu was the first to react. He rushed to Emily’s bed and grabbed Emily’s hand. “Emi, Emi, Brother is here. It’s okay.”
By the time Third Aunt reacted, Shen Yu had already calmed Emily’s emotions. Third Aunt only saw Emily continue to sob and fall asleep. Shen Yu carefully wiped away the tears from Emily’s eyes.
Third Aunt thought that Shen Yu would carefully leave after Emily fell asleep. However, Shen Yu held Emily’s hand tightly and kept muttering, “It’s okay, it’s okay. Go to sleep.”
Third Aunt was shocked. She quickly took out her phone and snapped two pictures of the two children. She wanted to show off to them when she got back. It was really rare that Shen Yu had such a caring side to him.
The next morning, other than Shen Yu who was accompanying Emily in the hospital, everyone else went to school. When Shen Nan entered the classroom, he instantly caused a huge commotion in the classroom.
“Brother Nan, you’re finally here. I missed you so much.” The moment Li Yu saw Shen Nan enter the classroom, he instantly pounced on Shen Nan.
“Stop it, don’t be so mushy.” Shen Nan stretched out his hand to block Li Yu’s advance. He did not want to be pounced on the moment he entered the classroom.
“Is Millie alright?” Just as Shen Nan sat in his seat, Qi Yan hurriedly turned her head and asked Shen Nan about Emily’s body.
Perhaps it was because he had been in contact with Qi Yan more recently, Shen Nan was no longer as cold to Qi Yan. He quickly nodded and said, “She’s fine, but the doctor said that she needs to rest in the hospital.”
Qi Yan instantly felt relieved. Then, she turned around and handed her notes to Shen Nan. “These are the notes that I told Millie about for the next few days yesterday. You can bring them to Millie when you go to visit her.”
